Wear::: Boden

Happy Monday Friends!

Are you guys as excited about daylight savings as I am? I love that we can start barbecuing at dinner time again. This weekend The Beard and I celebrated having more daylight by sleeping in and going for a nice walk down by the water front. I double celebrated by wearing some new pieces I received from Boden. For those of you who haven't shopped Boden {seriously, great British style} yet, you're in for a treat. I may or may not be kind of obsessed with their clothing.

I think this company is so great I wanted to share a little more about them than I normally do with Wear posts because, well, I want you to love them as much as I do! Plus, they have an office located right here in Boston. Score on shipping times for me!

"After five burglaries, one office dog, nine Christmas quizzes, twelve nights spent in the warehouse, one consignment of refugees arriving with a clothes delivery, four office moves, quite a few sense of humour failures, a few sackings (but thankfully not many), 2 venture capitalists, 6 awards, about twenty fantastically annoying customers (mostly related to me), a couple of crooks, 520 King Pizzas ("Continental" medium thin crust with extra anchovies for me), a great team spirit, one incredibly tolerant wife, bucket loads of sweat and even more laughs, we're still here! Boden was founded in 1991 by Johnnie Boden. Our headquarters are based in the UK in North Acton, with a US marketing office in Boston. We are a British clothing retailer selling womenswear, menswear, and childrenswear internationally. Originally a mail-order business, 90% of sales are now generated online, with mail-order remaining an important part of Boden’s marketing strategy, distributing millions of catalogues each year. We sell worldwide, with top regions including the UK, US, and Germany. We’ve gained a reputation for designing bright, patterned clothes as well as casual basics. Our collections include the Boden range for men and women, Johnnie B for older children and teenagers, and Mini Boden for girls and boys up to 12 years old. Baby Boden is also available for newborns to three-year-olds and a maternity range for expecting mothers." - Boden

PS. Does this bridge look familiar to you? You may recognize it from this Up inspired anniversary shoot by my talented friend Lauren Wells.
PPS. Don't let these photos fool you, it may look like it was a warm spring day, but it was actually 18 degrees out on that bridge! COLD.
